yeah I searched for the zalman but I had to import it from US or something like that which was going to cost me a fair amount of cash. Maybe when it becames available here I'll change it. Hmm so 20% to unlock the pipes that's still a fairly slime chance of unlocking it. Don't know if it's...

yeah I did order the Silencer due to cost. The Zalman is more expensive where I am. Should do the same thing. hehehhe Okay what about a probability of success? :p BTW i was thinking of using a XT bios but I wanted to lower the speeds down with Rabit. Pros/cons? I'm guessing I can up...

See I'll be happy with that even if I don't get the unlock pipes would be nice but I'm not really expecting to get 4 good pipes out of it. I just order some Artic Cooler ATI rev 5 v2 so I can do some more serious test on it. Unfortunately I dont have a scanner. So can we tell if this is...

yeah that's odd that. that blur is actually something on the card. Kinda like covering something or another. Sorry that's the best picture that my flatmate and I got unfortunately. I just read another post by Nyte that you cannot unlock x800se because of how the Fuse in the ASIC was made...

Well here it is. The GPU The lasercut or lack off And the memory That's the best pics i can get with my dodgy camera so sorry about that/ Alittle edit aswell. I ran the artifact tester on the latest omega drivers and I got the core to 506mhz for 36 secs before I stopped it. It didn't...

I'm pretty sure there's no laser cuts. I have take photos of it but I don't have them with me at the moment cause I am at work. But the laser cut is definately not there. I have the images where can I post it?

looking at all the pictures where the laser cut is suppose to be yeah it doesn't have any. If I can get a picture of it I will post it up. But it definately looks like there is no laser cut. Oh yeah it is ddr3. Sorry mistype. Here is the hardware readout from omega drivers hope this helps...

Okay after reading a lot of threads in different forums about this question so forth but here my plan to flash and unlock the pipelines for the Sapphire X800 SE GDDR3 256-bit graphics card. Diagnosis 1. No lasercut on the GPU 2. R420 GPU 3. 256MB DDR2 Memory 4. Voltage not too sure...

So no one can unlock the pipes but can this be modded to x800 pro/xt?

Okay there hasn't been some replies to my post but that's cool after readind some more post I think I know what to do. I took of the ATI fan off the saphirre to have a look at the laser cuts and there wasn't any laser cuts that I can see on the card. There were minute tho I could 1% wrong. But...

Okay I am abit confused in regards to this. I have seen alot of threads about what people are trying to do here and I'm just asking more questions that I was trying to find answers for. 1. Can the X800SE be turned into a X800pro or higher? 2. Why do you need to unlock the other pipes? Will...

Yeah that's what I am thinking. Going price seems to be about $50 bucks but his not willing to refund it.

I know where to get a cheap X800 Pro vivo but there are some white splotches on the card and he stated that the heat sink is missing a few screws. I was wondering if this card will be fixable enough to buy it. Can I fix it with just a bios flash to the original and replace the heatsink.

preflash? Does that mean flash the bios???

ok. I would still need to use atitool to find out what frequences on the core/mem I can run safely right? Or should I just download the bios from the bios database here at techpowerup and that will flash to 500/250??
